Sorry, folks, I had the Project That Took Over My Life going on. Anyway, what do you want to know?
35 thoughts on "P & Q: FINALLY (and sorry) Oasis Naan"
Mine are in the over now. They are poofing up quite a bit–will update when I taste them!
I docked the bejeezus out of mine, multiple times, and they still puffed way up. For the last one, I poked it immediately before sticking it in the oven, and it came out the flattest.
mine are in the oven. i am thinking of making some plain ones with salt and using them for peanut butter sandwiches for school lunch boxes tomorrow.
I've made the dough and it will refrigerate overnight. I haven't kneaded by hand in ages. I'm tired!
I've mixed 3 kind of flours: bread flour, whole wheat spelt flour and all-purpose flour.
It's a lovely bread dough!
I'm making mine to go with dinner tonight. Has anyone tried keeping them for a day or two and then reheating in the oven? There are only 2 of us here. I'm thinking of baking half the dough as Oasis Naan and saving the rest in the freezer to try the Persian Naan later on. Or, do you think the dough would keep for a day or two in the back of the fridge where it's coldest and I could just bake the rest of the dough then? I do this with pizza dough all the time, it's usually even better after being in the fridge for a couple of days.
Hi Cheese! I made the naan when it was just my son and I at home eating them so I had ton leftover. I reheated them the next day on my pizza stone at 350 for maybe 5 minutes. They were a tiny bit chewier than on day one, but still tasted just as good. I kept mine wrapped overnight in a kitchen towel per the recipe instructions.
Renee, thanks for the tip! I did read that in the book but wasn't sure just how long they'd stay tasty. What I'm going to do is bake half of the naan and freeze the other half of the dough for later.
Had high hopes for this recipe. Turned out beautiful and flavorful, but also on the dry side. Anyone make the Génoise for the strawberry cake? No way will I get three layers out of it.
I liked making it and how it tasted but I also found it on the dry side.. Haven't tried the genoise yet..
Ditto on the genoise comments. Barely got two layers. My naan was soooo yummy even though I completely forgot to knead it!
Did everyone really knead this BY HAND??!! I am not sure I believe in that kind of thing.
Well, firstly I've used my hand to switch on my KA :-) – It did most of the job!
But I still had to knead it by hand …for a very short moment.
I enjoy kneading by hand – it adds to the whole ambience of making bread from scratch. I'm the same with with wine – must have a cork. :)
You are definitely right, Cathleen.
Ups, it's already Tuesday (00:03) here! Let me run to my blog and press "publish".
Hope to see you there :-)
It's my blog's first birthday today! I have been busy making cake pops … but the naan will be published on time — loved making it too :)
Happy Bloggy Bday! :)

Some famous (and not so famous) quotes from WW1
Here are a selection of quotes (both well known and slightly more obscure), from people who lived and fought through the First World War. These are just a few of my favourites, I hope I have quoted them correctly (I am sure I will get told if I haven't!) If you have a favourite quote that is not in this list, then why not let me know!
So, in no particular order…here are some interesting, amusing, sad, and ultimately, historic, quotes from the war to end all wars…
'It is my Royal and Imperial command that you exterminate the treacherous English and march over General French's contemptible little army.' (Kaiser Wilhelm II, 1914)
'The machine gun is a much over rated weapon..' (Field Marshal Douglas Haig, 1915)
'It takes 15,000 casualties to train a major general.' (Ferdinand Foch)
'Hard pressed on my right. My center is yielding. Impossible to maneuver. Situation excellent. I attack.' (Ferdinand Foch during the First Battle of the Marne, Sept 1914)
'You will be home before the leaves have fallen from the trees.' (Kaiser Wilhelm II speaking to German troops in August 1914).
'The nation must be taught to bear losses. No amount of skill on the part of the higher commanders, no training, however good, on the part of the officers and men, no superiority of arms and ammunition, however great, will enable victories to be won without the sacrifice of men's lives. The nation must be prepared to see heavy casualty lists.' (Written by Haig in June 1916 before the Battle of the Somme began).
'Very successful attack this morning… All went like clockwork… The battle is going very well for us and already the Germans are surrendering freely. The enemy is so short of men that he is collecting them from all parts of the line. Our troops are in wonderful spirits and full of confidence.' (A report by Haig on the first day of attack, 1st July 1916).
"Ils ne passeront pas!" – 'They shall not pass!' (Henri-Philippe Petain, during the Battle of Verdun, 1916).
'I hate to shoot a Hun down without him seeing me, for although this method is in accordance with my doctrine, it is against what little sporting instincts I have left.' (James McCudden, VC, RFC, 1917).
'Inaction is atrophy, paralysis, death.' (Ferdinand Foch).
'The spell of Trafalgar has been broken.' (The Kaiser after Jutland).
'There was not a sign of life of any sort. Not a tree, save for a few dead stumps which looked strange in the moonlight. Not a bird, not even a rat or a blade of grass. Nature was as dead as those Canadians whose bodies remained where they had fallen the previous autumn. Death was written large everywhere.' (Private R.A. Colwell, Passchendaele, January 1918).
'Fight on and fly on to the last drop of blood and the last drop of fuel, to the last beat of the heart.' (Baron Manfred von Richtofen).
'I died in hell – (They called it Passchendaele).' (Line from Memorial Tablet, Lieutenant Siegfried Sassoon, November 1918).
"…pretty mechanical toy but very limited military value". (Lord Kitchener upon overseeing trials of the tank).
'Retreat? Hell, we just got here!' (US Marine Captain Lloyd W. Williams).
'This is not peace, it is an armistice for 20 years.' (Ferdinand Foch. After the Treaty of Versailles, 1919).
And perhaps my favourite WW1 quote: A poem called 'The German Guns' from a certain Private Baldrick…

At a recent business dinner, the conversation was lively, the atmosphere cozy, and the mood light, as someone rose with glass in hand. "I'd like to offer a toast to Patty, for the terrific way that she has supported us this past year." Looking over the clinking of glasses and the round of warm congratulations sat an embarrassed but clearly gratified Patty. This simple scene represented the culmination of a years-long journey to rebuild tattered relations between the groups present — and therein lies our story.
The Back Story
For more than a decade, relations between marketing and one of the lines of business had been frayed, sometimes to the breaking point—reflecting in large part the contentious relationship between the heads of both groups. Words like toxic, angry, skeptical, uncommunicative, antagonistic, and the like could be used to describe the tone between the groups at various points. How did things move from this paralyzed state of affairs to the happy dinner scene above? In a word, hard work—a series of steady, persistent actions over the course of years.
Lessons Learned
Several steps — some intentional, some happenstance — served to break the logjam and help move the relationship between the groups forward.
- Change in Players—The first key event was the departure of the marketing head (for reasons unrelated to this situation). The hard feelings between the two heads had become so entrenched that no Continue reading

Meet Daniel: he's 31 years old, grew up in a Conservative home and now considers himself "Reconstructionist, if I have to affiliate myself at all." Living in a small college town, highly educated and extremely social, Daniel (who declined to provide his last name) dates almost constantly, but says that only about 15 to 20 percent of the women he dates are Jewish. A woman's Jewishness "is not that important," he says.
"For my parents, it's important that I marry someone Jewish. But for me, being Jewish is a plus, but I'd be happy to marry someone not Jewish if we have other things in common," he explains. "I feel there is a much bigger division between those who are observant of any religion [and] those who are non-observant than there is between religions." He would therefore rather that his children be "unobservant Christians" than very religious Jews.
Now meet "Jacqueline" (who wished to remain anonymous): she is 32, also grew up in a Conservative home, lives in New York City and works in the non-profit sector. She is funny and smart and wants to get married - specifically to a Jewish man. "I want my children to grow up with Jewish values and be part of the Jewish community," she says. "It's important for a married couple to have those common values and a similar heritage."
Yet Jacqueline has had a hard time finding a suitable Jewish mate. "My friends and I talk about it all the time," she says. "It's a major problem. You have fantastic women who are beautiful, intelligent, warm, great to be around, who have senses of humor and want to be wives and mothers, to be part of a couple - and we are not able to do that because the men are not in the same place."
The Jewish "singles crisis" appears to affect women more drastically than men.
Jacqueline and Daniel are both indicative of a phenomenon well-known among Jewish communal leaders and dating experts. What is commonly referred to as the Jewish "singles crisis," and in Orthodox communities as the "shidduch crisis," appears to affect women more drastically than men, both practically and emotionally. Both statistical and anecdotal evidence provided by sociologists, matchmakers, lay leaders and singles themselves paints a picture of a dating scene in which many more women than men attend Jewish singles events; more women actively use Jewish dating sites; matchmakers are flooded with applications from women; and single Jewish women in their late 20's and 30's are panicking.
As well they should be, sociologists say. As difficult as the "dating scene" can be for many men, it is often more challenging for the fairer sex, especially in the Jewish community. Jewish women, particularly Orthodox ones, are even more likely than non-Jewish women to be caught in the "age squeeze," the phenomenon of women in their 20's who think they have plenty of time to get married, only to discover in their 30's that men their age prefer to date younger women. What's more, highly educated and professionally accomplished Jewish women have a harder time finding mates because their achievements and success can be intimidating to potential partners.
Perhaps most painful, especially for those in the Reform and Conservative movements, is that Jewish men are increasingly alienated from synagogue and communal life - and some hold active antipathy toward Jewish women. A monograph to be released this spring by Dr. Sylvia Barack Fishman, a professor of Contemporary Jewish Life at Brandeis University, and Daniel Parmer, a Brandeis University graduate student who works with her, shows for the first time that as women have become more active in Jewish ritual life and culture, men have increasingly disappeared, rejecting both the trappings of communal affiliation and Jewish women. Seen in this light, the "singles crisis" is not an isolated problem, but rather a symptom of a more radical one: a pervasive identity crisis that profoundly affects Jewish men.
The Numbers
Ever since the 1990 National Jewish Population Survey (NJPS) stunned American Jewry with its high intermarriage rates, American Jews have become acutely aware of the number of Jews who choose either to in-marry or inter-marry.
The most recent NJPS of 2001 reported an intermarriage rate of 47 percent. Among the denominations, of all Jewish marriages that occurred between 1991-2001, 3 percent of Orthodox intermarried, 20 percent of Conservative, 45 percent of Reform and 56 percent of those who identified themselves as "just Jewish." The NJPS also found that young Jews enter into marriage of any kind at rates significantly lower than that of the general U.S. population.
Broken down by age, in the 35-54 year age range, 37 percent of Jewish men and women intermarried. Among those under age 34, intermarriages accounted for 47 percent of weddings among Jewish men and 37 percent of marriages among Jewish women.
Significantly, the study also found that, among Jews over the age of 30, only 20 percent date "mostly or only" Jews, and 71 percent date both Jews and non-Jews.
A key to understanding the dating tribulations of Reform and Conservative women (Orthodox singles behave somewhat differently) is in an often-overlooked statistic about intermarriage. According to Fishman's monograph, "Matrilineal Ascent/Patrilineal Descent," women who intermarry get married, on average, three years later than women who marry Jewish men. This three-year gap, which is much smaller for men, is statistically significant, she says, and reflects women's initial desire to marry a Jew. The intermarriage comes about, she and other sociologists explain, after a woman gives up on finding a Jewish husband and decides to marry a gentile rather than stay single.
Maintaining Ties
Fishman and Parmer found that, in interviews, "Jewish women who married non-Jewish men overwhelmingly say that their original preference was to marry a Jewish man, but that with the passage of time other factors gained consideration.
"The guys are not thinking about children and the implications of being married to a non-Jew."
"I never got that narrative from a guy," Fishman says. "The guys are not thinking about children and the implications of being married to a non-Jew."
In the 2000-2001 NJPS, both affiliated and unaffiliated Jewish men were less likely than their female counterparts to rate religion as "very important" to them. Says Dr. Steven Bayme, director of the Contemporary Jewish Life department at the American Jewish Committee, which monitors Jewish life in America, "if one doesn't care whether they marry a Jew or not, marriage to a Jew probably will not happen."
Jewish women more actively seek husbands who share their backgrounds for several reasons, Fishman says. First, among Americans generally, women are more likely than men to describe themselves as "religious" and to believe that religion is important for raising ethical children; Jewish women are no exception. Similarly, American women, including Jewish women, are more likely than men to keep close family ties - and are therefore, Fishman says, more likely to want to marry someone who will please their parents.
Jewish men, however, may not feel as strongly about maintaining family ties. According to Fishman and others, non- Orthodox men are increasingly feeling disenfranchised from communal Jewish life as women take on primary leadership roles.
"A lot of men were alienated from Jewish life," Fishman says.
According to studies cited in Fishman's monograph, American Jewish girls are more likely than boys to receive a Jewish education, especially after their bar or bat mitzvah. They are also more likely to join Jewish youth groups, participate in college Hillel activities, take Jewish studies classes, describe themselves as affiliated with a wing of Judaism, attend weekly worship services, partake in adult Jewish education, visit Israel, attend secular Jewish events and engage in volunteer Jewish leadership.
"The growing gender imbalance among American Jews is a critical, and painful, challenge in Jewish life today," Fishman and Parmer write.
Alienation and Antipathy
But it's not simply a matter of many men disappearing from Jewish life or not caring whether their wives are Jewish or not. Disproportionately, compared to non-Jewish men, American Jewish males harbor active antipathy toward Jewish women. They complain, Fishman and Parmer write, that dating Jewish women is more work than fun and that Jewish women are "demanding, overbearing, and best escaped."
Fishman conducted studies in the late 1990's in which groups of Jewish men, non-Jewish men, Jewish women and non- Jewish women in and around Los Angeles were asked to choose, from among many photos of anonymous females, a "typical Jewish woman" and to describe her. They were then asked to describe the "ideal Jewish woman."
The last three groups - male and female gentiles, as well as Jewish women - overwhelmingly described Jewish women in neutral or positive terms such as "smart," "able to talk about anything," "beautiful," "voluptuous" and "well-read." In describing the ideal Jewish woman, they used the same terms.
The responses of Jewish men were markedly different. They were likely to describe the typical Jewish woman as "talking too much," "having to have an opinion about everything," "obsessed with food," "overweight" and "materialistic." And when they described the "ideal" Jewish woman, they chose different photos - of supermodels - and described them in opposite terms, such as "quiet," "not saying much" and "likes to listen."
So, at a singles mixer, if a Jewish woman asks a man what he does for a living, "a Jewish man will interpret that question as hostile," Fishman says. "They say 'all Jewish woman care about is how much money I make,' as if there is no other reason for a person to ask you what you do when they are getting to know you. If a non-Jewish woman asks the same question, it does not get interpreted that way."
"These are self-image issues," Fishman continues. "Men are ambivalent about their Jewishness, and they project that onto the women. They feel that if they are attached to a non-Jewish woman, it will break the curse."
Evan Marc Katz, a Jewish dating coach who calls himself "America's Leading Dating Expert," sympathizes with Jews who have difficulty connecting with other Jews.
"If Jewish men find Jewish women to be difficult, then perhaps the answer for the women is to date men who are themselves easier," Katz says. "We're a bright people, a questioning people, but a neurotic, complaining and negative people. Would you want to be around that? We'd be well served to at least get aware of that [quality] and be responsible for it, and not be too surprised if others aren't responding well to it. We have a lot of mishegas. It's no wonder we don't want to marry each other. We're very lucky when we find someone who loves us."
Late Marriage, No Marriage
Of course, the phenomenon of panicking single women is not unique to the Jewish community. Indeed, thanks to the hit HBO comedy series Sex and the City, the desperate 30-something female is now a cliché.
A primary social force contributing to the increase in singles is delayed marriage, the trend in the last few decades to get married at more advanced ages. While in the 1950's and 60's men and women typically got married in their early or mid-20's, few singles become seriously interested in marriage today until their mid-to-late 20's.
Especially Jewish ones. By the time they have reached the age of 34, only 48 percent of Jewish men and 64 percent of Jewish women have married, compared to 59 percent of the general American male population and 80 percent of the female.
Jews who get married immediately after college are more likely to marry other Jews than those who marry later.
Delayed marriage decreases the chances for marriage, Bayme says, just as delayed pregnancy decreases the chances of childbearing. It also changes singles' expectations, both of themselves and of their dates. "Marriage has become something you do when you've done everything else," Jacqueline says. "When did it happen that you had to be complete before you got married, instead of planning to grow together?"
But there is another implication of delayed marriage for the Jewish community: Jews who get married immediately after college are more likely to marry other Jews than those who marry later. So the fact that few students expect to marry when they graduate means that they are losing chances to in-marry.
"There is a pool of Jewish women and men of the same age in college together," Fishman says. "That is the highest density of potential Jewish partners they will ever see again, since Jews go to college in proportions much higher than other ethnic or religious groups in the U.S."
She adds that men who are most keen to commit to a long-term relationship are most likely to get married young. Thus, as women get older, the men they date are increasingly likely to be what Fishman calls "resistant to commitment."
"In the Orthodox world, especially," she says, "when a guy who is not resistant to commitments meets a girl he likes, he marries her."
Additionally, women's dating pools become quantitatively smaller as they get older, due to what several experts called the "age squeeze." In general, women prefer to marry men around their age, perhaps a few years older or a few years younger. Men, meanwhile, almost unilaterally prefer to date younger women - often, much younger women.
"You have a Jewish man and a Jewish woman who are both 28," Fishman says. "They are both in graduate school or pursuing careers. The women see that not all the Jewish men are married yet. They are not panicking. What they don't realize is that in their mid-30's, when the men decide to settle down, the men will not be looking at Jewish women their own age. Instead, they will be looking at two different populations: Jewish women who are 10 years younger than they are or non- Jewish women."
Sara Brownstein, a matchmaker who worked with hundreds of Los Angeles Jewish singles until she moved to Israel four years ago, puts the age squeeze slightly later, saying that "When a man in his 40's wants to get married, if he does not have children, he will look for a woman under 40 because he wants children. They do not understand that if a woman is 35, 36, she does not want to marry a man who is older than 41, maybe 42. If he is in his 50's, if he has children he does not want new babies. He could marry a woman in her 40's, but those women still want children. They feel the men are too old."
Graduate School Paradox
To be sure, many Jewish women have their own negative, undeserved stereotypes about Jewish men. And it is possible that Jewish women are indeed more "demanding" than non-Jewish women, for documented reasons.
Jews are among the most highly educated minorities in America. More than half of all Jewish adults (61 percent of men and 50 percent of women) have received a college degree, and a quarter (29 percent of men and 21 percent of women) have earned a graduate degree. Jews are almost twice as likely to hold a college degree than Americans generally and four times as likely to hold a graduate degree.
Unfortunately, their academic and professional success decreases their dating pool since, as Cohen says, "men want to 'marry down' and women want to 'marry up.'"
Although no one is advocating that women avoid graduate school, Dr. Michael J. Salamon, a psychologist and the author of The Shidduch Crisis: Causes and Cures, says "the problem [in the Jewish dating scene] is that women are overeducated and find the men boring. The men are intimidated. And the women are not getting what they want."
He also notes that this phenomenon makes "in-marrying" a difficult proposition for Jewish men with low levels of education. Fishman goes a step further and says that many Jewish men are attracted to gentile women because non-Jewish women and their parents are perceived as easier to impress.
The problem is just as big, albeit different, in the Orthodox community. While intermarriage is extremely low and marriage is not delayed as much, community leaders note the seemingly disproportionate number of "fabulous girls" (including this reporter, I feel obligated to divulge) who would very much like to get married, yet reach their 30's or 40's with no luck.
Sociologists and matchmakers have various explanations. First, they say, it is true that Orthodox Jews tend to marry young, but this means that those men who are still unmarried in their 30's are even more likely to be "resistant to commitment," as Fishman calls it.
Perhaps more important, the "age squeeze" is more pronounced among Orthodox Jews than in other groups. Danielle Jacobs, the chief operating officer of SawYouAtSinai.com (a dating Web site with over 25,000 Orthodox members) and the founder of JRetro- Match.com (a site with almost 10,000 non-Orthodox Jewish members) says "age is a sensitive issue in the Orthodox community, more so than in the secular world. Men are not as open to dating women their own age, never mind a woman who is older. A man is less inclined to date a 30 year old if he can date a 23 year old."
The Good News
True, something like half of all Jewish people marry out of faith, but half do make the decision to in-marry, hurdling all the obstacles facing them. That's why, despite all the social forces contributing to the Jewish "singles crisis," experts emphasize that there is reason for optimism, both for individuals and for the community.
In terms of Jewish communal policy, they offer several suggestions.
First is the need to create experiences that will help more Jews, particularly boys and men, feel good about being Jewish. "What is necessary," says Bayme, "is to build a value system in which people say 'I value Jewish life so much that I can envision sharing my life only with another Jew.'"
"The idea that Jewish education stops at bar mitzvah is really hurting us."
Second, Bayme says, "adolescent Jewish education needs to become a universal norm in the Jewish community. If you agree that adolescence is the critical age when people form ideas about who they want to marry, then the idea that Jewish education stops at bar mitzvah is really hurting us. It's almost criminal that just when young people are ready to discuss dating, that's when we lose them from the educational system."
He also suggested that Jewish communities more actively encourage young people to choose colleges and graduate schools not only on the basis of academic strength, location and size but also density of Jewish life. "If you are living in an environment surrounded by other Jews, the chances are that much greater that you will date a Jew," he says.
For individuals, especially women, who seek to get married, Fishman says that the single most effective way to increase one's chances is to become willing to marry outside of one's preconceived age criteria; that is, for a woman to open herself to the possibility of marrying a man 10 years older than she is.
Singles who have found love offered similar advice: to be flexible, but not just about age. "Rebecca" (who wished to remain anonymous), 31, has carefully cultivated her image as a "high-powered career woman" and recently got married after actively seeking a husband for 10 years. Her new partner "is not someone I would have given a chance to 10 years ago," she says. "In terms of academics and career, I'm more accomplished. But he's a good person who treats me well. And he's very cute. This is a guy who wants nothing more than to make me happy. I'm not settling; I'm happy. I love him. What makes a person a good person isn't necessarily the same qualities that make them super-accomplished in their career. But it's a lot harder to teach someone to be a good person than it is to help them be a little more accomplished."
Rabbi Asher Lopatin of Congregation Anshe Sholom B'nai Israel in Chicago says that his Orthodox congregation of 400 members celebrates approximately 15 weddings per year. "Half of them meet at the Shabbat tables of other members," the rabbi says, "and the other half met online.
"We have women who get married in their late 30's and 40's and are having kids," he continues. "It's really nice to see."
And finally, Brownstein says, keep the faith. By the age of 44, an American Jewish woman is more likely to be married to a Jewish man than to still be single. And despite all the complaints that singles expressed about online introductions, Jewish dating Web sites, including JDate, Frumster and SawYouAtSinai, have helped thousands of couples get engaged. Moreover, in the time it took to research and write this article, this reporter attended two weddings of friends in their 30's and learned of the engagement of a third.
"We see people getting married all the time," Brownstein says. "You never know what awaits. Statistics are not as important as faith."

Bosses of the TV network Logo have shelved a documentary about Paris Hilton following the star's controversial comments about AIDS.
The socialite was recorded discussing gay men, HIV, and gay social networking website Grindr with a friend during a cab journey in New York earlier this month.
During the conversation, Hilton was heard saying, "Gay guys are the horniest people in the word… Most of them probably have AIDS… I would be so scared if I was a gay guy… you'll, like, die of AIDS."
She issued an apology after the comments were made public, but the move didn't stop chiefs at the Logo channel pulling 2007 show, Paris Hilton, Inc., which was set to air twice this week.
A representative for the channel says the documentary "has been removed from the schedule."

Salsa dancing in Latin America
This article is a travel topic
This page is intended for the Salsa dance lovers who are travelling around Latin America. It is surprising, but usually it is quite difficult to find good salsa clubs while travelling in Latin America. In this guide you can find information about Salsa Clubs around Latin America. This information was gathered through travelling, if you have any updates about it, or you can introduce some new clubs around latin america please do. Unless otherwise stated, this information is valid for the year of 2006.
Buenos Aires
Located in Sarmiento 1728 (a short taxi ride from 9 de julio & Av. de mayo) Maluco Beleza website
La Paz
Av. Arce, in front of Hotel Raddison Live music & dancing only on Thursday nights.
Only on Friday nights at the end of each month (every 4 weeks).
Salvador da Bahia
Pelourinho neighbourhood, no 7 Rua Frei Vicente (next to Sorriso da Dadá restaurant) Open 6 days of the week except mondays with live samba, salsa, forro etc. DJ plays music of the african diaspora from salsa, zouk, samba, reggae, congolese rumba, axe, soul, funk, coupe decaler, mbalax, etc. The ambiance here is wonderful. The band is live playing "latin" salsa while the DJ plays some excellent salsa cubana - charanga habanera, los van van, manolito etc.
Generally you can find lots and lots of salsa music in Colombia. Most of the people would know how to dance and move with the rhythm. However there are two problems for the advanced salsa dancer. First is that they usually don't do any turns, most Colombian girls get confused by Cross-Body lead ("Dile-que-no"). Second, usually people get to the clubs by pairs and sit around tables.
Lots & lots of places. Most of them as I described above. They say juanchito neighbourhood has good clubs.
Lots of clubs around Carrera 70. (near Estadio Metro Station)
Sayulita, Nayarit
Info current as of April 2011:
Bodeguita del Medio - live Cuban band every night of the week except Mondays.
Don Pedro's (on the beach), Mondays is Salsa Night.
Live Cuban Band every Friday night 10pm-2am Stella's corner of Abasola and Marquez de Leon
Lots of places around the main plaza. All of this places teach salsa for free every night. usually after 12AM the music is changed for mixed music. Cusco is a great place to start learing salsa. but the experienced dancer would proabably satisfy with dancing only with the instructors.
Please note, non-local salsa dancer please stock up your water prior to dance. Dancing first time @ 3400m above water is not easy
Good place to learn basic steps with Cuban teacher Mauricio Triana. He has lived in Peru for a long time so you can see a bit of a mixture of Peruvian and Cuban salsa.
This is the place to visit if you want to learn authentic Peruvian Salsa. The lessons are taught by Peruvian teachers Freddy Vivanco and Marina Quispe. They are very passionate about their style of salsa and are very eager to teach you the steps and moves that make Peruvian Salsa unique.
Muriel's Dance School-Jr.Anselmo Andia 751, Urbanizacion Sta. Luzmila, Comas, Lima 7. Muriel Pelayo is a very enthusiastic and experienced dance teacher. She is one of the pioneers of Peruvian Salsa. For more information visit the Peruvian Salsa website: www.peruviansalsa.yolasite.com

if you've ever been caught up in a Pearl Jam song, you're probably going to want to see "Pearl Jam 20."
The trailer just debuted, and listening to Eddie Vedder's fraught growl crescendo against a backdrop of grainy footage of slow-motion stage-diving and guitar-slamming, one is instantly transported back to the early 1990s, when they helped to make Seattle grunge a global sound.
Yeah, sure, the tour bus footage and screaming fans are sort of standard-issue-rock-movie stuff, But this movie has Cameron Crowe as its director, and who knows how to do that better? (See: "Almost Famous" if you aren't sure about that.)
Crowe was given 1,200 hours of footage the band kept over the years, and then blended in recent material.
"It's the best souvenirs of the past," Crowe told Rolling Stone. "Some fabled footage you've heard exists but have never seen, and some interviews."
While the movie chronicles 20 years of the band's history, the trailer doesn't show any glimpses of the band's political activism or fight against Ticketmaster.
The film makes its world premiere Sept. 10 at the Toronto Film Festival, but most of you will have to wait until Sept. 20, when the film opens nationally.

I tried another batch of modems and found one,
PCI ID 127a:2005
Class 0780
that worked so it all comes down to hardware.
I haven't tried to dial up yet, just getting the driver to work has drained me, but I have one more card, PCI ID 127a:1025 Class 0780 to try so I will wait until tonight and see if I can connect to the internet.
Thanks again for the help.

Yep.. Hardware is in most cases the main cause of heartburn - it's usually an incorrect IRQ or even more - an incorrect 'driver' or 'drivers' - that are the bugbears ..
Good to see you have made some progress ..
As you have now found out - you actually need the 'correct' drivers for the particular model & type of modem BEFORE you can even get Puppy to recognise it - WHICH really means you have to do a "compile" of the Linuxant modem files against the kernel - '220.127.116.11' - WITH the modem installed (hardware wise) - otherwise you are only chasing the proverbial "tail" - as someone says (in their avatar) in these Puppy forums - 'unless you are not lead dog, the view is always the same' ..
Let us know if you have any further success or if you need further help ???
3 x boot:- ASROCK VIA 'all-in-one' m/b; AMD Duron 1.8Ghz+; 1.0GB RAM; 20GB hdd (WinXP Pro); 80GB hdd (MEPIS 3.4-3/Puppy v2.15CE Frugal); 1GB USB pendrive (Puppy 2.15CE Frugal); CD/DVDRW; 17" LCD monitor; HSF 56k modem... MEPIS is great.. Puppy ROCKS..

PCI ID 127a: 1025 class 0780
linuxant .com says :BEWARE: some PCI IDs, notably 127A:1025 and :2005 were used for both HCF and HSF modems, so you might have to try both drivers to find out which one works.
I downloaded both drivers but need help to install.
Please help.

Have I been waiting for you and your Conexant USB modem! I added support for it many months ago, but have had no one volunteer to test my implementation. The HSF Linuxant modem driver works in puppy 4.3 and can be added to 4.1.2 and 4.2.1, as can the HCF and DGC (USB) drivers. (I don't have either, so cannot test them. But the building process is similar to that for HSF.)
By design, if you have your modem plugged in at bootup, puppy should detect it and show ttyACM0 (I think) as the connected modem. If that doesn't happen, I will need your help to track down the reasons. Can you work with me to get you connected -- and fix puppy, if need be? Thanks for reporting your problem with the USB modem.

Good news and bad news. My testing has been on a PC with PCI cards. I have not attempted running from a USB drive, so now is the time for me to try that. It may take some time, but I will start on it, so I can replicate your situation. That would be better than using up your time.
Let's start on the modems-and-sound issue. You have a laptop that has the Conexant modem as part of its sound hardware and the Intel is what? A PC card? Have you checked Iwill's solution to getting sound working while the HSF modem drivers are loaded, if that is part of the problem:
Which of the modems do you want to use? Puppy chooses alphabetically, so it should select the HSF and ignore the Intel537. Maybe there is a conflict that Puppy isn't addressing.
Could you post the output from PupScan's PCI interfaces listing and attach the /tmp/udevtrace.log file from a bootup pf the laptop? That would give an idea of what is happening. Thanks.

I hope you gus don't mind me jumping in here.
I have the conexant HSF modem. It is PCI not USB.
Puppy finds my modem immediately and will dial out no problem.
I confirmed this by dialing to another line.
But it will not connect with my ISP server. It will not detect the carrier.
I have not changed anything in the conf. or strings.
Any ideas??
Thanks in advance.

Foo Fighters Play Marathon 'Rock the Vote' Concert
The Foo Fighters treated about 1,000 lucky fans attending a Rock the Vote concert at the Fillmore in Charlotte, N.C., on Wednesday (Sept. 5) to what Billboard reports is believed to be the band's longest concert ever — a three-and-a-half hour, 35-song, career-spanning set. "Tonight we play as long as we want and as much as we want," frontman Dave Grohl told the intimate crowd — and apparently, they wanted lots of both.
The gig, which came one night before the Foos' scheduled performance alongside R&B singer Mary J. Blige and others in support of President Barack Obama at the Democratic National Convention, was an atypically intimate affair. "This is the biggest place we've played in quite a while," joked Grohl. "We were gonna play the stadium but …" he added, referring to Bank of America Stadium, where Obama was scheduled to deliver his DNC speech Thursday night until the venue was changed due to the weather forecast.
The sprawling set list, which featured a 20-song main set and a 15-tune encore, included a selection of hits like 'All My Life,' 'The Pretender' and 'My Hero' and covers like Tom Petty's 'Breakdown,' Pink Floyd's 'In the Flesh?' and Wings' 'Jet.' It also included a rare performance of 'Winnebago' by Late!, Grohl's pre-Nirvana solo project.

Description for the TLC271B
The TLC271 operational amplifier combines a wide range of input offset voltage grades with low offset voltage drift and high input impedance. In addition, the TLC271 offers a bias-select mode that allows the user to select the best combination of power dissipation and ac performance for a particular application. These devices use Texas Instruments silicon-gate LinCMOSTM technology, which provides offset voltage stability far exceeding the stability available with conventional metal-gate processes.
Using the bias-select option, these cost-effective devices can be programmed to span a wide range of applications that previously required BiFET, NFET, or bipolar technology. Three offset voltage grades are available (C-suffix and I-suffix types), ranging from the low-cost TLC271 (10 mV) to the TLC271B (2 mV) low-offset version. The extremely high input impedance and low bias currents, in conjunction with good common-mode rejection and supply voltage rejection, make these devices a good choice for new state-of-the-art designs as well as for upgrading existing designs.
In general, many features associated with bipolar technology are available in LinCMOSTM operational amplifiers, without the power penalties of bipolar technology. General applications such as transducer interfacing, analog calculations, amplifier blocks, active filters, and signal buffering are all easily designed with the TLC271. The devices also exhibit low-voltage single-supply operation, making them ideally suited for remote and inaccessible battery-powered applications. The common-mode input voltage range includes the negative rail.
A wide range of packaging options is available, including small-outline and chip-carrier versions for high-density system applications.
The device inputs and output are designed to withstand -100-mA surge currents without sustaining latch-up.
The TLC271 incorporates internal ESD-protection circuits that prevent functional failures at voltages up to 2000 V as tested under MIL-STD-883C, Method 3015.2; however, care should be exercised in handling these devices as exposure to ESD may result in the degradation of the device parametric performance.
The C-suffix devices are characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The I-suffix devices are characterized for operation from -40°C to 85°C. The M-suffix devices are characterized for operation over the full military temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

One of the best thing about living in Oregon is the fresh and local strawberries. And then of course there are the hazelnuts. Oh and the coffee. And the mountains. The coast. The gorge. And of course Portland's naked bike ride. Let me rephrase: there are so many great things about living in Oregon, among which are the fresh, local strawberries. If you have been following me over the past week, you already know that I have an abundance of strawberries and yesterday in between consoling, playing, and feeding my daughter, I de-stemed, washed, and froze bags and bags of berries. In the process I got hungry and paused to whip up a batch of Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Creamsicles. Thanks goodness I did!
You ready for an incredible easy yet fantastic summer dessert?
Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Creamsicles
makes about 10 creamsicles
2 1/2 cups fresh strawberries
1 can full fat coconut milk
1-2 tbsp agave nectar
2 tsp vanilla extract
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
3 tbsp coconut oil
In a food processor, blend together strawberries until smooth. Add coconut milk, agave nectar, and vanilla and process until combined. Pour into popsicle molds and place in freezer until frozen all the way through.
Combine chocolate and coconut oil and melt in a microwave or double boiler.
Prepare a cookie sheet with a silicone mat or waxed paper. Dip frozen creamsicles into melted chocolate and set on cookie sheet. Return to freezer for a couple minutes. Enjoy!
Hope you all have a wonderful summer weekend! Get excited for next week; The Sweet Life is having it's very first giveaway!

For all the motivation he needs to inspire his new club against his former one, Carlos Ruiz failed to mention one possibility: sour grapes.
The Philadelphia Union forward created an uproar earlier this week when he commented on the dysfunction he perceives within his former team, the LA Galaxy. Ruiz said he believes the Union should fare well against his former side at PPL Park on Wednesday (7:30 pm ET, Watch Online).
"From my point of view, LA Galaxy is in trouble right now," Ruiz told MLSsoccer.com earlier this week. "They've played more games than any other team. They are going to come here and try to do something about it, but we are in a better position than them. We're going to try to play smart this game so we can be in first place in the East."
He further explained that the Galaxy are not "good like everyone thinks" and that they "don't do anything spectacular."
Ruiz, of course, has a long history with the Galaxy, some of it good, some of it not so good.
The Guatemalan striker exploded on the MLS scene when he joined the Galaxy in 2002. That year, he was named the League MVP and he won the Golden Boot on the back of a 24-goal season that helped the Galaxy win their first MLS Cup. He won a second Golden Boot with LA in 2003, after scoring 15 goals.
However, all those gems did not maintain a happy marriage with the Galaxy. In 2005, the Galaxy traded Ruiz to FC Dallas in return for the number one spot in the allocation draft, which LA used shortly thereafter to bring Landon Donovan back to MLS.
Obviously, the Galaxy have enjoyed having Donovan. But Dallas also reaped the benefits of having Ruiz — especially when they faced the Galaxy. He tallied three goals in eight games against the Galaxy — including a strike in October 2006 in a win that simultaneously helped Dallas clinch a playoff spot and eliminated LA from contention.
But a year or so later, after the 2007 season, Ruiz was headed back to the Galaxy. When Dallas struck a deal with LA for cash considerations, Ruiz could not hide his enthusiasm about returning to the club that made him a star.
"I still think the Galaxy is the best team in the US," Ruiz said in a 2008 interview with Soccer365.com. "They're the best organization. The Galaxy have always had famous players. They continue to be a team that people always follow. In the end, it's the same. The team tries to win, we try to play good football. Players have come and players have gone, but the idea is the same."
Things didn't work out, though. A knee injury in the 2008 season opener kept Ruiz from reclaiming his place in then-coach Ruud Gullit's Galaxy side and created an opening at forward that Edson Buddle seized. At the end of the 2008 season, Bruce Arena, who replaced Gullit, traded Ruiz to Toronto FC to make room for another US international, midfielder Eddie Lewis.
After leaving MLS to try his hand at international competition over the past two seasons, Ruiz now finds himself facing the club that once made him a star and twice shed him aside. While he first and foremost will focus on supporting the Union's efforts to overtake the New York Red Bulls in the Eastern Conference, one should express no surprise if the Philly forward also sees Wednesday's contest as a personal matter.

So today was my first day at my volunteering job. I should have been nervous, I usually would have been, but i have had a lot of other things going on so the job had been at the back of my mind.
I woke up early this morning, earlier than usual, and thought 'Urggghh I remember why I hated working, I want to go back to sleep'. Lots of things went through my head actually and its hard to get things into perspective when your half asleep. Like i did in the past I even considered not going but as the time went on I remembered why i had applied for this. This is a fantastic opportunity and something I could get great enjoyment from.
I got myself ready and headed to the class. I couldn't find a parking space and the one i eventually found was pretty far away. Although I usually don't have a problem with walking from A-B, I find in a new situation where I have nerves to deal with, I am better being a little closer. My agoraphobic mind kicks in and tells me that, should i panic and need to run, i want to do it quickly.
Into the building I am greeted by an elevator. Well surprise surprise I don't do lifts! Luckily I found some stairs and headed to the room which it was at the back of the building. Another Agoraphobics dream. Entering the class I see its filled with about 25 people So i walk in and take my seat, nervous?? Yeh! I tried to busy my mind with reading posters on the walls and things like that and I was managing to get quite comfortable but then came the part I was dreading. You know what its like when you start something like this, they do that 'lets get to know each other' thing, where each person stands up and says a bit about themselves. I waited with bated breath until it was my turn, and of course I was last which gave me plenty of time to get a bit flustered. I spat out my introduction 'Hi I'm Lynn and I have always been interested in working with people with special needs or adults who need help with reading, writing or numbers, so this was the perfect opportunity for me'. And Breathe!
One of our tasks was to discuss the difficulties which can face adults who want to go back into learning. We covered issues like money, children and then someone said 'Health issues can cause problems for example if someone is agoraphobic' I couldn't help but smile to myself. The rest of the class plodded along nicely and I started to mingle with the others, before I knew it I was enjoying myself. The instructor told us what is coming up in the next few weeks and I found myself really looking forward to it. 8 weeks of training and then we get to start helping people. Exciting.
So I got through it and was feeling really elated and proud of myself. Sometimes I need to remind myself how far I have come.
Throughout the class the instructor had made comments about not really liking the room we had been given. It was a bit cramped and there was no air conditioning so it was a little warm in there. But then he shocked my by telling us there is another room we could go to.... in another town. My heart sank. One of the best things about the job for me was its location. Most of the people in the class had travelled from all over and they didn't really have an issue with relocation. It came down to a class vote. Did we want to stay where we were, or did we want to go to this new building with more space, better parking and air con? Obviously I put my hand up with a vote to stay put, but only 4 other people joined me, and so we have been relocated.
The new location is waaaaay out of my comfort zone and its somewhere I have never travelled alone. Ill be honest I think this may be the end of the road for me. Absolutely gutted. I will call them mid week and see what they can come up with but my adult literacy career might end up being very short indeed.

We all know that parking a car or van on Grand Ave in Maspeth can be a nightmare. Wed. Jan 7th, I wanted to buy some food at Ivarone's on 69th St. and Grand. Not finding a parking spot, I went around the block by making four right turns.
As I came back in front of Ivarone's, a woman was pulling out of a parking spot up ahead and so I prepared to enter the spot. She prepared to cross over the Avenue in a u-turn and a truck pulled up to the space I was waiting for and pulled in.
There I was just losing my spot when the ticket man started to walk to my car. I was beginning to leave but since he was coming towards me, I decided to role down my window and wait until he asked me to move on.
He went right to my registration sticker and took a picture and went away.
He never asked me to move or for that matter said anything. It was clear to me, that his interest was to give me a ticket. The irony here is that I was leaving and stopped out of courtesy when he approached my car.
I expected him to say move along Sir but he said nothing. It was clear to me that he was a predator probably with a requirement of a certain number of tickets per month as a job requirement.
I came to Maspeth when I was two years old in 1943 and remember playing stick ball in the streets. This has been my community for sixty six years and it can be difficult seeing rules or regulations enforced with little or no consideration for people.
Just look at the meter situation. One day I was trying to park at a working meter. That was an ordeal as I found five consecutive meters with Fail on them. More often than not, I have to park by a failed meter hoping that the predator doesn't decide: "AH, another ticket".

Pope Benedict gives a short talk after listening to a concert in his honour in Paul VI Hall at the Vatican May 5.
VATICAN CITY - People of every epoch and in every culture have prayed because people have always recognized there is something greater than themselves in the universe, Pope Benedict said.
"Human life is a mix of good and bad, of undeserved suffering and of joy and beauty, which spontaneously and irresistibly push us to ask God for light and interior strength," the pope said May 4 at his weekly general audience.
Humans seek that strength to save us in this life and assure us that there is life beyond the grave, he said.
Pope Benedict began a new series of audience talks about prayer.
"We want to learn to live more intensely our relationship with the Lord" through prayer, he said.
"Even those very advanced in the spiritual life feel a constant need to put themselves in the school of Jesus to learn how to pray."
Pope Benedict explained that examples of attempts to pray can be found even in classical pagan cultures.
The ancient Egyptian prayers tended to focus on pleas for help from on high and those of ancient Mesopotamia were characterized by an acknowledgment of human guilt and a search for mercy, he said.
The ancient Greeks, such as Socrates and Plato, showed a shift from seeking personal favours to requesting assistance in being wise and good.
The ancient pagan pleas "demonstrate that human life without prayer, which opens our existence to the mystery of God, becomes meaningless and lacks a point of reference."
Every prayer, the pope said, shows two basic truths about the human person: his or her experience of a need for help, and his or her "extraordinary dignity" as a being "able to enter into communion with God."
The desire for a relationship with God is "inscribed on every human heart," he said. The keys to entering such a relationship are found in the Bible.
It is only "in Jesus that human beings become able to draw close to God with the depth and intimacy of sons and daughters," he said.

Ludwick flies out to left.
Ludwick flies out to left.
Ball is going nowhere tonight.
"You only have to bat a thousand in two things; flying and heart transplants. Everything else you can go 4-for-5."
-Beano Cook
Astros left 2 runners on in the 3rd. Still 1-0 Cards mid 3rd. Brewers up 2-0 on the Pirates in the 7th.
Bruce singles to right.
Bruce steals 2nd.
Rolen pops out to 1st.
Pitched around Hanigan.
Now Valdez with two on.
I'd use a pinch hitter. Let Xman take a shot.
Valdez is quite literally the worst hitter I've ever seen. I call him the Out Gremlin.
Valdez grounds out to 2nd. 0-0 mid 4th.
Almost a sure out.

Whitnall officials hold parent meeting to discuss arrest of employee
Food services director accused of soliciting a child for sex
Officials with the Whitnall School District will meet with parents Monday night to discuss the arrest of a school worker accused of a sex crime.
The meeting is a listening session for parents to learn more about the a food service worker at the high school was arrested after police said he solicited a 15-year-old online for sex.
James Heidke, 55, is charged with the use of a computer to facilitate a child sex crime. He worked as a subcontractor for the district, serving as food service director for the district.
Police arrested Heidke after a sting operation where an undercover Milwaukee police officer posed as a teen online by answering a Craigslist ad.
Police said that once arrested, they discovered leather restraints, a collar and a sling in Heidke's east-side home.
District superintendent Dr. Lowell E. Holtz said the investigation did not uncover any contact with district students, which is why parents were not notified of Heidke's arrest.
Monday's meeting begins at 5:30 p.m. in the high school auditorium.

A Night of Indulgence
Over the last nine months I have finally found a method of eating that works for me. It is all about the 90/10 Rule (sometimes 80/20); what this means is that 90% of the time I try to eat really well and then 10% of the time I will indulge GUILT FREE. I think for too many years I have been overly concerned with that I am eating and making myself feel bad for indulging even just a little. Now that I have stopped being so hard on myself I find that it is so much easier to follow a 90/10 or 85/15 or some weeks 80/20 diet. I know that I have control over what I eat and that if I can do really well 90% of the time than for me that is great. I don't need to be eating really well 100% of the time to feel healthy and happy.
Last night I let myself have that 10% GUILT FREE. After work Neil and I had 2.5 hours before our dinner plans so we decided to take advantage of the time and headed first to The Farmhouse for a beer, snack and round or three of darts. This is where our night of indulgence starts; we both enjoyed a nice beer but since I hadn't had lunch we decided to get an order of their fries (they are to die for).
After beer, fries and darts we took a little walk around downtown Burlington before meeting Laura for dinner at A Single Pebble this really delicious family style Chinese Restaurant. We had a gift certificate and were excited to use it since that meant we could order all the yummy dishes we wanted without worrying about spending too much (this place is a little pricy). So for dinner we had (please note all dishes were requested vegan- there are some dishes that appear to be vegan on their menu however are not so ask your server before ordering):
We ordered way too much food and ended up leaving with a bunch for leftovers. We really enjoyed everything but the favorite dishes of the night were the Dry Fried Green Beans, Double Garlic Broccoli and Tan Tan Noodles. The one thing that we really were not impressed with however was the service. We had arguably the worst table in the house and then our service was awful; our sever only came over to our table 4 times in the 1.5 hours that we were there. We also ended up sitting for nearly 30 minutes being completely done eating before anyone stopped by the talk to us, fill our water glasses or ask if we needed anything else. Normally we have a really good dining experience and come here frequently for special nights out but tonight was just an off night.
Do you indulge guilt free once in awhile? What are your favorite indulgences?

Today's Blind Items
I figure since I am always rightfully bashing Scientology, I thought I would share something about the "religion" of another actor. This late 20 something A-/B+ film actor has a little secret that belies his primarily clean cut image. He is a devout follower of Anton LaVey. He has a first edition Satanic Bible which was personally signed by LaVey. Our actor also has the number 9 tattooed on himself to signify the nine rituals of the Satanic Church. He even went so far as to purchase some land where he and other followers use to practice many of these rituals.

Because I'm still in graduate school, I won't pretend to know anything about organizing materials for a school based SLP, BUT I do have a pretty good system for myself in school!
Overview: I use one or two binders for all of my classwork. I either put all of them in one binder, or separate for MWF & TTh. This year, I'm putting everything in one binder! (see the picture below)
Then, I also keep a separate clinic binder where I keep data and materials.I ALWAYS have a running to-do list of everything I need to do. I wouldn't survive without my planner! For the first couple weeks, I have to weirdly carry my schedule around with me as well.
I do have a planner but because I'm obsessed with to-do lists and schedules, I usually use another week at a glance form as well.
I've created a FREEBIE that I think is adorable to help YOU stay organized as well! It includes everything I use to help stay organized during graduate school (and all of the forms I showed above). While I think it's perfect for graduate students, I promise that I didn't forget the rest of you. I made sure to make it perfect for SLPs or anyone looking for some cute, organizational pages.
First, I included 5 different binder covers (shown below). They come in 5 fun colors! Use then for your class/clinic binders! Just write in the name of the class in the white space. Feel free to add text on the PDF and print that way too!
I also included inserts for the spine of the binders as well. Again, easy to just write in the name of the class/subject.
Next, I made a fun to-do list to keep track of what needs to get done! I have this one divided up in "School", "Clinic", "Personal", and "Other" categories. BUT, I also included one with blank titles for those of you who would like it divided differently!
Next up is a schedule! Fill in at the beginning of the semester (or whenever your schedule changes) to keep track of when you need to be certain places. I'll be printing off several of these because my schedule never stays the same for the whole semester…
I've also included a week at a glance form. It's pretty self explanatory! If you can't see it, the bottom contains a section for important meetings/assignments/tests, and notes as well as a small to-do box.
Last, there is an included poster! This has been one of my favorite quotes to get through graduate school.
What do you think?? Can you tell I love that aqua color? 🙂 I REALLY love how these turned out and I hope you do too!
You can download this product FOR FREE in my Teachers Pay Teachers store here. While you are there, you should consider following my store for updates when I upload new and exciting products!
And if you need binders, this is an AWESOME deal. It's usually around $11 for 4 binders and they have the wonderful clear sleeves on the front and spines for your new, pretty binder covers!

Washington, D.C. -- Late Monday night, Senator Mark Kirk (R-IL) and Senator Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) introduced The Horse Transportation Safety Act of 2011 (S. 1281) to ban double deck trailer transportation of horses in the United States. Senator Kirk has worked to end the use of double deck transports for hauling horses since serving in the House of Representatives, following a horrific double deck trailer accident that took place in his state.
"The Animal Welfare Institute (AWI) is elated that Senator Kirk has chosen to reassert his strong commitment to the issue since his election to the Senate last year," said Christine Sequenzia, federal policy advisor at AWI. "Humane horse transportation is one of our top priorities and we felt that committee passage of a standalone bill during the 111th Congress was an important step forward. We now look forward to seeing the Horse Transportation Safety Act of 2011 signed into law."
Double deck livestock trailers on the road today were built to meet the specific design and engineering requirements of short-necked livestock species, like cattle, sheep, and swine. Unfortunately, a few irresponsible haulers have used these trailers against manufacturer intent to transport horses, leading to inhumane travel conditions for equines and unsafe roadways for drivers. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the National Agriculture Safety Database (NASD) have recommended ceiling heights no lower than 7'-8' to transport horses safely, while average double deck trailer ceiling heights range from 4'7"-5'11". The U.S. Department of Transportation only requires bridges to have a vertical clearance of 14' in both rural and urban areas, making it impractical to build or modify a trailer large enough to transport equines on two levels.
"Besides being an inhumane way to transport horses, double-deck trailers pose a major safety threat to the drivers of the imbalanced, oversized vehicles, as well as to other motorists," said Senator Kirk. "Unfortunately, crashes due to these factors have occurred, and the results of the accidents are devastating. Following an accident in 2007 in Wadsworth, Ill., authorities worked for five hours before they were able to free the horses from the wreckage."
Today, most professional horse haulers believe double deck trailer transportation of horses has been banned. While there are a few state laws prohibiting the use of double deck trailers, there are no federal guidelines regarding the humane transport of horses, other than those going to slaughter. Even those are flawed; current USDA regulations banning double deck transportation only cover horses heading directly to a slaughterhouse. Horses bound anywhere else, or en route to a midpoint in their journey (such as an auction house or feedlot) legally may be hauled in a double deck trailer - notwithstanding the cruelty. The USDA has expressed a desire to strengthen regulations banning this inhumane practice, but has yet to take action on the matter.
The Horse Transportation Safety Act of 2011 (S.1281) is necessary to protect horses from being transported across the United States in a trailer having more than one level. To learn more about this issue or to write a letter to your Senator in support of S. 1281, please visit http://www.compassionindex.org/.

When we heard Ice Castles were somewhat close to our area - we knew we had to see them in person. So we decided a road trip would be in order to view the Ice Castles in Wisconsin Dells. Did it disappoint? Definitely not.
The Wisconsin Dells Ice Castles Location boasts a convenient spot right on a Mt. Olympus property (look for the Trojan horse) and can be seen from the busy road. Some highlights of our visit include:
The kids had a blast and were quite enamored with so much ice surrounding them. Me on the other hand? I couldn't take enough pictures! Here are a few (more on my blog). And rest assured any picture taken will be awesome!
Bottom Line: The kids had a wonderful time sliding, crawling, and being surrounded by the ice wonderland. I loved taking photos of everything – you don't see this every day. Would we go here again? If we were in the area, yes, but we wouldn't make a drive all the way for this. However, I do think that it is definitely something someone should see at least once in their lifetime. After all, how ofter can you say you've been to an ice castle?

AI War is a huge game already. Arcen Games has ceaselessly released update over update and expansion over expansion over the years the game has been active. This indirectly controlled space-strategy game is pretty big. Running on the beautiful Unity engine, the game is quite brilliant and requires a serious amount of forethought and strategizing to play.
The game has now been updated to version 5.0 and a new expansion pack has also been released, titled Light of the Spire, increasing the number of ships by 180, new music and factions and a new game mode called Defendermode that you can pick up and play. A lot of the mechanics of the game have been rebalanced for better and challenging gameplay. It is also as cold and unwelcoming as ever to newcomers, like Dwarf Fortress. It's so hard it's good. Try losing a couple of times (or a few hundred times) before it clicks with you. The game is pretty huge and, if bought from the Arcen Games store, has no DRM.
Do keep on the lookout for a Steam or Impulse sale for the entire AI War series at a discount. The larger this game gets, the more tempting it is for me to get into it. However, the larger this game gets, the more intimidating and cold this game seems; it's like Minecraft that way (but thankfully I got into it earlier than most. Ha!)
Check out the release trailer for Light of the Spire here.

The labor situation is far from dire
It would seem from all the gyrations of late surrounding the question of whether or not Detroit will be bailed out, that the failure of GM and Ford would put a huge segment of the working population at risk. But that is an exaggeration. There are many ways a GM and Ford bankrutpcy could be resolved that wouldn't have a significant impact on the U.S. economy. Simply renegotiating existing labor contracts could save most of those jobs. But even if their plants close, the economy will continue to function. Other automakers would step in the to fill the gaps that GM and Ford might leave.
The panic reflected in the market these days is unwarranted.

I was wondering earlier today what a chart like this would look like ... we keep hearing that "jobless claims are the most since 1991" or "the most since 1982" or whatever, without correcting for the growth in the US labor force during the last quarter-century. I've enjoyed your blog a lot and I love the graphics you generate to support your arguments.

Indeed, this is a terrific chart that I have wondered about. It seems the financial media, like most media, thrives on presenting the most schocking take on facts and figures while rarely putting them in context. If it bleeds, it leads is still alive and well in the information age.
I recall CNBC being described as bubble vision during the dot com boom, and it sure felt that way watching the parade of non-stop tech investing experts debating whether it was better to buy Cisco or Global Crossing, etc., all the way up to NASDAQ 5000. Now, CNBC is morphing into crisis vision with a parade of experts debating whether we are in for a long recession of another depression.
Even though jobless claims have not reached truly historic levels, as your chart shows, it seems higher unemployment is on the way. It seems to me the most important question about our future is how high will it go? Since we have the highest percent of service sector jobs in history, does that make unemployment levels more sensitive to the macroeconomic contraction or less? I'm not sure, but my gut tells me that employment levels will react faster than any time in history.

Another 30,000 feet view of things seems to be that real median income in 2007 is below the level in 2001 when the recession ended (according to the Census Bureau); yet, during that time housing and stocks had a huge boom. Since income did not go up, and I will add that inflation did not go down, that entire boom was the result of credit expansion. If credit had stayed proportional to incomes, that boom would not have happened at all. Now that it did happen, we have had 7 years of a huge misallocation of resources, and now we have to absorb that misallocation without another credit expansion, and perhaps even a credit contraction.

Mark: I agree that the unemployment rate will likely move higher. I'm hoping it doesn't go dramatically higher. After all, we've had bad news making headlines for well over a year
I'm not sure I agree that the decline in median income was tied to credit. "Credit" is a slippery term to begin with, and it doesn't create or destroy growth necessarily, nor does an expansion of credit due to private sector activity necessarily lead to a rise in incomes.
